What beer are you drinking now? #486

Just the other day I was wishing I had picked this up when it was at my usual bottle shop and then today while at a grocery store I don't usually frequent I saw they had two 4-packs left so I happily picked one up.

Of course I had to try them both to properly compare the pumpkin and spice affects on the two styles of beer! Just doing my due diligence.

I enjoyed both very much, though I think I preferred the Tripel over the Baltic Porter. In the Tripel the pumpkin and spice were more complimentary notes while in the porter they seemed more the focal point.

I have the next two days off and was planning on enjoying my last Wake 'N' Bake (courtesy of @skinsfan ) with breakfast this morning. An unexpected, and most unwelcome, trip to the dentist yesterday changed all that. Fortunately, this was awaiting me ...

Not disappointing in the least, and not a bad way to settle in and watch the replay of Saturday night's That Metal Show, either.

Having a basic ham, bacon, lettuce sandwich plus some hot pork skins. I'm starting with Anderson Valley Spring Hornin', definitely not a "wow" beer. I'm also trying to drink down the supply in the frig so I can go buy more.

I'm in Burlington, VT in midwinter. Skiing, you ask? Nah, I'm a beer tourist, and I am in a cold beer heaven.
So many great beers here, and I am trying to sample them all. I have three cases of these for the trek home.
I'm having one right now, it's snowing and I'm tucking in for the afternoon. Cheers!
